Ok so we can all agree the new AF3 aka Emperian gear is full of win.

Traditionally, SE has never let us store +1 +2 gear. SO, ya, how are we supposed to live with new gear on more than 1 job? Shoot, we still can't store Salvage or Nyzul gear. Come on SE give us some storage or more inventory space.

I feel like most of the Empyrean armor will let us drop some of our old gear(example, AF1 and 2 BLM hats for even just the +1 hat on the BLM Empyrean), I think that not being able to store won't be too bad.

Hopefully someday :(

yea all my storage is bursting at the seams... i would love some kind of new storage system, one that allows you to store weapons, then another sto store AF, another to store food and random items, etc... would make it more efficient.

I currently have a total of 9 free inven space after general food/meds & all MH is full >_>

Why are we punished for having lots of gear? D:

Again.. going by the WoW thread that popped up.. at least in that game, equipped gear dont take up space.

Edit: @Degs - I'd rather Have a MH that is upgraded to say.. 100 in safe/locket/storage :/

yea i know i would simply like to have more storage in general too... locker needs an expansion.. at least another 10 spots... for right now, and then a new gobbie bag/satchel to 100 would be nice... i would eventually love to see something like what i suggested though... would be kinda neat for that organization element

SE dont want ppl to have more than 1 job.

And for that one job you need to spend 2.5 years worth of ToM to get the weapons and armor upgrade you need.

It's easy. Don't level every job in the game. If you want to be versatile, pick your favorite job from each type (DD, Mage, etc..) and focus on those.

I've done this. Every update I end up retiring one or a few jobs. I will probably retire all jobs but nin, unless they decide to make it a bit easier to get what you need to gear yourself decent.

* Mozu DMG +8: probably took like a month worth of play time to get.

* Helm Of Briareus: 0/50

* OA 2-3 times: still not done with that.

* Eva katana: havent even started yet.

* AF Feet: Took roughly 4.5 hours worth of abyssea to get.

* Seals for AF +1: 0/24 (feet, legs, head)

* Stuff for AF +2: 0/?? (feet, legs, head)

(Just some examples)

taking in to consideration the amount of time it'll take to just gear one job, I'm really not up for it to go through all this on another job, ever. lol

Even the hard core gamer is going to have some trouble getting all this stuff for multiple jobs.. thats why i decided to work on pup 100% first and foremost, and level pld and dnc in the sidelines... its going to take a long time to max out 1 job the way things are looking

One of the things I have always loved about FFXI though is the ability to play several jobs on one character and being able to come whichever job is best for the situation.

That being said, I have been focus'ing most of my efforts on Blu.. And have pretty much retired PLD&SAM..

But I'm hoping these items for AF3 won't be ridiculous to get(At least for +1s..) as I would love to do BLU, DRG & BLM..

SE: Oh well, you see.. We add a bunch of useless ***, like over 1000 magian weapons youll never use, so because of this PS2s cant handle much more, this is an excellent reason, we cant add anything youll actually be able to enjoy, PS2 Limitations and such.. but we did give you some god awful stuff like DRK MACC Scythes! Because those are so often going to be used.

Why?

Everyone that gets almost all jobs up either do so in Summoner burns, Abyysea, and so on and have crappy, uncapped skills, and no idea what they're doing.

Get up a couple of jobs, learn those jobs, and get the AF only for them.

There is plenty space for that.

80 Inventory, 80 Storage, 80 Mog Satchel. and 80 Mog locker... so all together, 320 spaces to fill up.

If your after Af3, by then don't you really think you should Dump your af1, I mean that's what 50 gear? You're like lvl 85, kinda defeating the purpose of " holding on"...

...get rid of it? garbage it? idk <shrugs>

Really depends on the job, MNK for example would still make use of most af1. SCH would be another I could think of off the top of my head.

Most jobs switch in AF1 for various things, MNK being the main job that does this...

MNK is a pretty heavy gear job, especially if you want to perfect everything as much as possible.

I believe SAM has a few switches too, and so does DRK.

That would only be the legs for MNK.
